Good to know
- ET is read by LibreOffice's import filter for it; very complex formatting can be simplified.
- Cells, formulas, formatting and charts are kept where an ODS file has an equivalent; pivot tables, slicers and functions that are newer than the format can be flattened to their values or lose their formula.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting ET to ODS free?
Yes. Everyone gets 25 free credits a day, with no account needed. Conversions on our server use one credit per started minute of work, so most cost a single credit. Credits reset at midnight UTC.
Are my ET files uploaded anywhere?
This conversion runs on our server, because reading an ET file needs LibreOffice, which does not run in a browser. Your file is sent over an encrypted connection, and both it and the result are deleted 72 hours after the conversion. The server has no internet access while it works on your file.
How large can the ET file be?
Up to 1 GB per file. This conversion runs on our server, which accepts files up to that size.
Will the ODS look the same as the ET?
The text and structure are kept: headings, lists, tables, bold and italic. Exact page layout, fonts and spacing may differ, because ODS works differently from ET.
Can I convert several ET files at once?
Yes. Add as many files as you like; they are converted one after another, and each one gets its own Download button.
